GRAND RAPIDS, MI (AP)— Jurors in Grand Rapids are hearing from a second man who pleaded guilty in a scheme to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
Kaleb Franks says the group was prepared to use a grenade launcher and machine gun against any resistance from Whitmer's security officers at her vacation home.
Franks is testifying against four men who are on trial for conspiracy: Adam Fox, Barry Croft-Junior, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta.
Ty Garbin has finished his testimony. He also pleaded guilty and says there's “no question” the group wanted to kidnap Whitmer over her COVID-19 policies and their overall disgust with government.
